Akeal Hosein held on to a stunner to dismiss Nicholas Pooran in the CPL 2021 game between Trinbago Knight Riders vs Guyana Amazon Warriors.

It was a Ravi Rampaul delivery full ball outside off and Pooran launched into it ferociously, moving across and unleashing a cover drive. Looked like he would clear Hosein over cover, but he leaped up, left hand outstretched above his head, and grabbed it behind his head with arm at full stretch and body in the air. Turns and lands, keeps the ball safe. Avoids touching the boundary rope too. That is out of the world. Jonty Rhodes would have been proud of it. Michael Jordan would have been proud of the hang time on it.
